    Minneapolis river bridge!

    OMFG

    http://www.smh.com.au/multimedia/200...pse/start.html

    This stuff doesn't happen in minnesota!

    I drive (drove) on that bridge 3 or 4 times a day.

    Spooky, looking at the wreckage and thinking about being on the bridge just hours earlier.

    I would expect the death toll to go up unfortunatly. If only because of the large numbers of road workers that were working all across the span of the bridge on both sides. I'd say at least 20 or 30 workers were on the bridge every time I drove through there.

    The 60+ foot drop is deadly enough without cars and const. equipment flying around.
